The Gospel According To Mark -- Chapter 3 Of "From Crisis To Christ: A Contextual Introduction To The New Testament", Paul N. Anderson

Faculty Publications - George Fox School of Theology

Excerpt from Part II: Features of Mark:

Mark has nο birth narrative; it simply begins with announcing "The beginning of the good news about Jesus Christ, God' s Son" (Mark 1 : 1 ) . Good news, of course, is what the word gospel means. As a herald would sound a declaration of the emperor, so the first of the Gospel writers declares the good news of what God has done through the life, death, and resurrection of Christ Jesus. This is similar also to Paul's language. Yet Mark does far more than outline the Christ Events; Mark also constructs …

“The One For The Many” Theme In James Torrance's Theology, Jeannine Graham

Faculty Publications - George Fox School of Theology

The theme of the one for the many is a golden thread weaving its way through the heart of Torrance’s understanding of the Person and atoning work of Jesus Christ. Distinct from a Platonic connotation, it expresses the yearning and relentless determination of the Triune God to reclaim creation from its dysfunction and realize its true destiny in personal union and communion with the Triune God of grace. Anchored in the manifold richness of God’s outgoing love as Father, Son and Spirit, the God’s covenant relationship with Israel is decidedly marked by its commission to be the one for the …

The Manipulus Florum, Johannes Nider’S Formicarius, And Late Medieval Misogyny In The Construction Of Witches Prior To The Malleus Maleficarum, Chris L. Nighman

History Faculty Publications

This article demonstrates and analyses Johannes Nider’s reception of Thomas of Ireland’s Manipulus florum, a popular early fourteenth-century florilegium, in composing the fifth book of his Formicarius, a very influential text for the development of the gendered witch stereotype in the fifteenth century. It also examines the lemmata “Mulier” and “Coniugium” in the Manipulus, arguing that Thomas of Ireland’s construction of those topics was essentially misogamous, rather than misogynous, though its reception by Nider was informed by misogyny.

Ghosts Of The Horseshoe, Heidi Rae Cooley, Richard Walker, Duncan Buell

Digital Projects

Ghosts of the Horseshoe (Ghosts) is a mobile interactive application that endeavors to bring into view--literally, on mobile micro screens (iPads and iPhones at present)--the largely unknown history of slavery at South Carolina College. It deploys game mechanics (i.e., ludic methods), as well as Augmented Reality (AR) and GPS functionality to generate awareness of and questioning about what otherwise seems ordinary: a grassy space at the center of a university campus. It organizes content into distinct but overlapping themes: (1) architectural ghosts (e.g., razed outbuildings); (2) human ghosts (e.g., un/named enslaved persons); and (3) the historic Wall delimiting the Horseshoe …

Reflections On Deep Time: From The Big Bang To The End Of Planet Earth, Daniel E. Schafer

Belmont Humanities Symposium Journal

Historians are well-known students of time. As a professional historian, I study events that occurred roughly a century ago. While their interest in specific time periods may vary, all historians engage with the question of change over time. Historians traditionally limit themselves to the age of written records—the last several thousand years or so—though we are always happy to supplement our study of documents with statues, ruins, paintings, artifacts and other debris of the past. As we go back to earlier periods, we increasingly rely on our archeologist friends to supplement our study of written records. For the very earliest …

Stop-Time: Present, Past, And Future Walk Into A Bar…. It’S Tense, John Paine

Belmont Humanities Symposium Journal

I will discuss primarily how three Western thinkers and writers approach human time. St. Augustine articulates the plight of human beings caught in ever-fleeing time in Book XI of his Confessions. J.-J. Rousseau in his Reveries finds an answer to the fleeting nature of time in reaching moments of being when he is entirely present to himself. Marcel Proust “finds time again” in bringing into focus present and past time in his novel In Search of Lost Time. Interspersed with discussion of these works will be apposite examples of how other poets and thinkers have dealt with the human condition …

Introduction, Maggie P. Monteverde

Belmont Humanities Symposium Journal

The impetus for this year’s symposium “Worlds Enough and Time” began for me more than forty years ago, while I was working on my senior thesis on “Concepts of Order and Chaos in Anglo-Saxon Poetry” and happened to notice that the idea of time underlying one of the poems was quite different from my own. So, as I prepared to write this introduction, I found myself returning to the starting point of my interest: the Anglo-Saxons. Surely, I thought, one of their famous riddles must have as its answer, Time. Not that I could find. So I tried to write …

Time-Travel And Redemption At Hogwarts: Redemptive Actions Made Possible By Time-Travel In Harry Potter And The Prisoner Of Azkaban, Ann Coble

Belmont Humanities Symposium Journal

This presentation first defines “redemptive actions” and then explores a range of redemptive acts carried out by Harry Potter and his friends at Hogwarts in the 3rd installment of the Harry Potter series by J.K. Rowling. When Harry and Hermione go back in time, they choose to act in ways that not only rescue their friends from death but also show love to at least one enemy. Note: this paper is full of spoilers!

Where In The World Is Sir Cloudsley Shovell? Or How To Find Your Way When You Are All At Sea, Michael E. Jackson

Belmont Humanities Symposium Journal

Sir Cloudsley Shovell had a reputation as an excellent seaman; he would not have risen to the level of Admiral of the Fleet if it had been otherwise. He was using all of the techniques for determining location that were available at the time, but ultimately they were not good enough, leading to the worst disaster in English maritime history.

Writing Out Of Time: A Look At The Memoirs Of Virginia Woolf And Vladimir Nabokov, Andrea Stover

Belmont Humanities Symposium Journal

My title is meant to suggest a paradox: We lose time with each word we write until eventually we will be out of time altogether, but we also create a sense of timelessness when we write, that exists out of and beyond time. So I guess writers are both running out and getting out of time. To get to the heart of this paradox, I’m organizing this talk around four impossible questions that I certainly won’t presume to answer. Instead, I’ll focus on the challenges these questions raise for writers, especially memoir writers.

No Abiding Place: Jane Austen In Space And Time, Douglas Murray

Belmont Humanities Symposium Journal

Like all literary criticism, my contribution to this collection is autobiographical. This packing and unpacking—performed with a mixture of repentance and achievement, nostalgia and forecast, regret and hope—recalled no one so much as (you guessed it) Jane Austen, who in her brief 41 years had to pack and unpack as often as most modern academics. This statement—that Jane Austen moved about—contradicts our notion of the woman.

What Time Is It In Paradise?: Examining Time Inside Eternity In Paradise Lost, Allison Rau

Belmont Humanities Symposium Journal

What does Milton wish to show us in Paradise Lost? He writes nothing cavalierly. Every single phrase, every single word is deliberate, intentional, and, above all, strategic. Volume after volume has been written on the most minute aspects of his specificity of language; Peter Herman has published an entire article on the use of the conjunction “or” in Paradise Lost. As such, while it may be easy to gloss over the numerous long series of descriptive historical and mythological references in the poem, thinking them merely colorful rather than important, one need only glance through the research of Sherry Lutz …

Gas Attack! The Strange New Temporality Of Warfare After Wwi, Kai Evers

Belmont Humanities Symposium Journal

Two things permeated Berlin in summer 2014: the heat—air conditioning remains a rarity in the German capital—and the memory of the First World War. Museums, libraries, art galleries, and cultural institutes cast a wide net of exhibitions across the city. Even for a centennial, their number and variety surprised: the First World War in children’s literature, in photography, in Latin America, in music, in the media of coin and medal, in early sound recordings, in surrealist art.

World Without Time, Eva Brann

Belmont Humanities Symposium Journal

The theory is, first, that time is not a being, a thing, or a substance in the world, nor does it operate as a power, a force, or a destiny in our lives. It has no external existence, and all speech attributing reality to it is unwittingly metonymic, meaning that the word “time” is used by a sort of obtuse poetry for processes that have better names of their own. The theory has a second element, namely that it would be a better world, and we would be better off, if more people thought that time was unreal and spoke …
